Buttons that allow legs and arms to move.
Sweet flowers and faces embroidered.
Hand stitching to sew on silk binding. This blanket has worn spots on the bears and is becoming very delicate. I am afraid it will soon fall apart. Laughing now...sounds like its owner again!!!Don't forget to visit Kelli for more wonderful Show and Tell's. Happy Friday!
***Just a reminder that today is the last day to sign up for my 200th post giveaway. I will be drawing Saturday morning. See my previous post!!

That is just adorable! I have never seen one that has moveable arms from that era. LOL No seriously why haven't you shown me that? Sooooo sweet.
That is the sweetest quilt. I wish I had the pattern to make one.
My mom gave me our baby quilts. I'll have to post pics of them.

What a wonderful treasure. Look at the stitching. They did a really nice job with it. My grandmother made me a quilt that I can remember wrapping up with but am not sure where it is now. I am happy to have those memories.

Morning, Ceekay! Oh, that little blanket is so sweet! How cute and wonderful that you have it today!

Such a wonderful treasure to have. I have a few nice blankets given as gifts when Baby Kay was born, but nothing as sweet as this. A really precious thing to still have - especially when it has been so much loved and worn!

Oh, what a treasure. I love all the special hand work and what sweet memories you have from when you were a little girl...hugs, Linda
That is a beautiful baby blanket. I've never seen one like it. I don't have anything from when I was a baby, but I do still have all the quilts from when my boys were babies.
That is so sweet! I love the moveable arms!
what a sweet blanket...and how lucky of you to still have it! I am not sure where any of my baby items are!
Awww...how cute. What a treasure that is.
That's wonderful! What a keepsake! Moveable arms are way beyond my abilities! :-)
What a pretty blanket! My baby blanket doesn't have the silk border because I rubbed it off because it was so soft.
The arms move--how cute is that! You've got a real treasure there.
oh how beautiful! and in great condition! You really took good care of it:)
This blanket is so special! I've never seen on with movable parts and the bear is so sweet!
There's something about that silk binding that kids love and usually wear it out rubbing-- yours is in great shape!!--like you:)

That is so wonderfully special - so much detail
Those bears are gorgeous.

Why does that look so familiar? Did you have it out and around when we were growing up? I seem to remember a light green one that was similar...who knows?
I didn't get to keep any of that - I went off to college and everything was gone when I got back. Well, at least that's the way it seems.
Cute.
Janet says hello.
love ya,

That is really neat that you still have that. Even from your pictures it still looks like it is in good shape. You're lucky to have it. I held on to my first baby doll and when we moved when I was 16 I never could find it again. I have no idea what happened to it btwn. there and here.
Love the blanket. It looks so soft and cuddly.
